There are a number of questions you should ask when selecting a Ontario Personal Injury Lawyer.

Does the lawyer restrict his practice to representing the injured in personal injury claims?

Does the lawyer have
expertise in the area you need?

Is the lawyer a member of personal injury trial
lawyers' associations, such as the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association?

Before you hire a lawyer, ask for references. You may want to talk
to people who can comment on the lawyer's skills and service.

Does the lawyer regularly appear in the
courtroom where the case is going to be heard?

Does the lawyer and staff treat you
courteously and professionally?

Does the lawyer have a local office, or in the location where your accident
occurred?

Money Matters - is the lawyer willing to represent you on a "contingency fee" basis? This means that the lawyer
will not be paid unless and until your case settles. A contingency fee is paid based on a percentage of what
you may collect on a settlement, or on a judgment if the case goes to
trial.
